Hypnotic Grip of the Ego Notes - (4340)

Introduction

This post is a collection of some notes from a talk given a few nights ago about the hypnotic grip of the ego. The notes are practical in nature and are presented with the intention to be of some help. 


Typical Scenario

A man looks at the casino from across the street. He knows he has a 'gambling problem" and has experienced much misfortune because of it and has the conviction that he is not going to step a foot into the place. 


Yet his attention gets hooked onto the building, the front door and the little bit that he can see going on inside. He continues to look and then he sees some people celebrating, some sitting at the edge of their seat, some leisurely walking around. Then his memory fires and he remembers the good times and good feelings he has had and then he begins to forget his convictions and he takes a few steps towards the casino. Then he stops and remembers again. Then he says: "just for a few minutes and then I'll go home". Then that's it the next thing he knows he's in the casino opening his wallet and the gambling person dwelling in his psyche is in control until the sad consequences arrive and wake him up. 


Do the things we Don't Want to Do

The hypnotic grip or power of any ego makes us to end up doing the thing s that we didn't want to do or say or in general don't want to do or say.


When we have a conviction not to do something before entering the difficult scenario sometimes we do what we don't want to do double or triple.


Hypnotist

When a hypnotist performs his or her work we can discern a few basic elements. Those elements are that one, the hypnotist is the one that now has control to direct the course of events and the control to introduce any element that he or she wishes. There is a belief that the person under hypnosis is now believing and the hypnotist has access to the psyche of the person under hypnosis.


The situation with the essence and the ego is exactly the same. The ego becomes the hypnotist and the essence becomes the one under hypnosis.


Hypnosis

Hypnosis in Gnosis is the state of dreaming or sleeping consciousness. 


Hypnosis Elements

Access, control and belief are the major elements when a person is under the hypnotic spell of the ego.


When an ego grips us with its hypnotic power - through believing in the statement of the ego we give it access to our psychology and then to the brains of our human machine and then it gains control of our human machine. 


The key here is belief. We believe in the ego's logic and its statement or arguments.


Kundabuffer and Sexual Energy

The Kundabuffer is the original fascinating and hypnotizing element which was given to humanity in very remotely ancient times to make the human being fascinated with terrestrial life.



Identification

The role of the hypnotic grip of the ego is to get us to identify with it. Which means to take on its identity or to become the same as it. Or to give an excessive amount of our attention and time to it.


Antidote

Comprehension, Revelation and Action is the antidote here. These elements are the reversal points of belief, access and control. When we comprehend we don't believe - we stop believing and when we experience a revelation from our consciousness - our consciousness is in control and when we act based on the revelation and comprehension we give our consciousness our human machine - which is the right thing to do.



Pass the Tests - All About Hypnotic Grip

To pass the esoteric tests we are submitted to either physically or internally we need to be above the hypnotic grip of the ego that is provoked in the test.


Strong Ego and Weak Ego

What makes a strong ego is the strength of its hypnotic grip over us. A weak ego is one whose hypnotic grip is less of a grip and has less power over us - us being our essence.


Control = Weak Hypnotic Grip

We gain control over any ego when we have weakened enough the hypnotic grip of the ego we are working on.

What is the Kundabuffer or Kundartiguador? - (405)

Introduction Gurdjieff and Master Samael spoke much about the Kundabuffer organ and a lot of what Master Samael said is pretty clear. This post is just about going over some of what he said. In the Quinto Evangelio, Master Samael also revealed many more details which do not appear in his books. Note, the Qunito Evangelio is a two tome compilation of transcriptions of many recordings of informal talks that Master Samael had with his students. English and Spanish Terms There are these two terms Kundartiguador and Kundabuffer which refer to the same thing. Kundartiguador is Spanish and Kundabuffer is English. I believe it was Gurdjieff who first introduced these terms in his book “Beelzebub’s Tales to his Grandson”. I believe “Beelzebub’s Tales to his Grandson” was not originally written in ether Spanish or English. So these terms Kundartiguador and Kundabuffer are translations where the word “Kunda” could not be translated and the ending "buffer" could b...

When We Speak Bad About Ourselves - Because of Self-Compassion - (2963)

Even Just Thinking Negative When we just even think, let alone speak about ourselves in a negative way, thinking things like: how we are really this and that bad and that is not at all what others see, that we are in capable, worth little, know nothing, can't do this and that, fail at this and that, a liar, a dreamer the list goes on... We can be 100% sure that self-compassion is behind this because pride by itself would never allow this.  In a case like this self-compassion taps into what pride hides from itself and others and exposes it. Feeling that it is doing job at ruining ourselves. Why It Does What It Does? Self-compassion does this sort of thing to avoid reprimand and to extract compassion from others. Self-compassion is about getting compassion for ourselves through others. It is set-up in relativity, using others as a reference point. Really the best thing that you can do for a person who is pitted against this ego is to ignore them, so that they can fa...

The Divine Mother is there when we Comprehend - (5780)

A very wonderful instructor gave a talk on Koradi Radio a few days ago and he said something that really impacted. He said that when we comprehend something, our Divine Mother is present right in that moment of comprehension. Especially if it is do with an "I" we are working on. He went on to say that he knows that She is there when we comprehend something. This for me was marvellous, because I have felt the same, though I was never fully sure. This is great news when we want to build a connection to our Divine Mother and doubt when is present. We can know that She is present when we are trying to comprehend. I feel that She really wants us to comprehend the "I" and further more She helps us to comprehend. We can truly ask for Her help to comprehend something and the help will come in such a natural way that we will tend to overlook it.   She is better than Google...  End (5780).
